Losses can range from loss of [[Work|employment]], pets, [[status]], a sense of [[Security|safety]], order, or possessions, to the loss of loved ones. Our [[response]] to loss is varied and [[researchers]] have moved away from [[convention]]al views of grief (that is, that people move through an orderly and [[predictable]] series of responses to loss) to one that considers the wide variety of responses that are influenced by [[personality]], [[family]], [[culture]], and [[spiritual]] and religious [[beliefs]] and [[practices]].

Bereavement, while a [[normal]] part of life, carries a degree of [[risk]] when limited support is available. Severe reactions to loss may carry over into familial relations and cause trauma for [[children]], spouses and any other [[family]] members: there is an increased risk of marital breakup following the [[death]] of a child, for example. Issues of [[faith]] and [[beliefs]] may also face [[challenge]], as bereaved persons reassess personal definitions in the face of great [[pain]].
